During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sunlight falling on the Moon.

There are two kinds of lunar eclipses:

1. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth.
2. A partial lunar eclipse happens when only part of Earth's shadow covers the Moon.

The word "Moon" comes from the Old English word “mona.” Obviously, English isn’t the only language, so the Moon actually has many names. “Luna” is the Latin word and the Greeks called it “Selene,” both of which refer to goddesses. Those words have made their lasting impression on how we talk about moons today, with “lunar” and “selenology,” the study of a moon’s geology.
